Playbook: Fill an NDA or SOW from Your Template
Project template walkthrough
This page walks through the built-in Document Analysis & Contract Review project template (document-analysis) — choose it under New Project. File names and values are an illustrative example; AMBA does not give legal advice and never drafts legal terms for you.
Domain: Legal & administration
Target Roles: Office manager, legal counsel, account manager, founder
Deliverable:reports/<Template>_<Counterparty>.docxwith every filled field as a tracked change
1. What AMBA Does — and What It Never Does
AMBA fills the fields of your contract template — party names, addresses, registration numbers, dates, amounts, durations — from the facts you give it. It never rewrites, adds or deletes clauses, and it never invents a value: anything it cannot find in your message or in Sources becomes a question to you.
Every filled field is written as a tracked change (author "AMBA"), so you review and accept each one in Word. Your template in Sources is never changed.
2. Walkthrough
Step 1: Add the files to Sources
Mutual_NDA_Template.docx— your NDA, SOW or service-contract template with blanks such as[Company Name],[Date],[●], highlighted fields or Word content controls.- The facts: a term sheet, a quote, a purchase order, a company profile or an email export.
Step 2: Ask
Fill sources/uploads/Mutual_NDA_Template.docx for our NDA with Beta Trading JSC,
using the details in sources/uploads/Beta_Company_Profile.pdf. Effective date: today.Step 3: What AMBA does
- Inspects the template and lists every field to fill.
- Sources each value from your message or a file in Sources.
- Asks you for every value it cannot source — for example the governing law or the confidentiality period — and waits for your answers.
- Fills the copy in
reports/field by field as tracked changes, removing the yellow field highlighting from the filled text. - Checks the result: a contract that still contains a blank (
[Company Name],[Fill in …],[Date],[●], a content control showing its placeholder) is refused and fixed before the run completes.
Step 4: Read the summary
The answer ends with a table of what was filled:
| Field | Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Counterparty | Beta Trading JSC | Beta_Company_Profile.pdf |
| Effective date | 11 October 2026 | your message |
| Governing law | Vietnam | your answer |
Fields you chose to leave open are listed separately.
3. Review the Tracked Changes in Word
- Open the filled file (click it in the deliverables list, then open it in Word).
- Go to Review → Track Changes; each filled field shows as an insertion by "AMBA" with the template text struck through.
- Use Accept / Reject per change, or Accept All Changes when everything is right.
- Accepting all changes gives exactly the filled contract — no other text, numbering or formatting was touched.
Your company Word template
For new documents (not contract fills), set Company Word template in the project settings (General tab): new Word files then use its styles, lists, page setup and headers/footers.
